Product details

A spectrum of bold shades with a range of finishes including matt, rubber and high-gloss. Award-winning, extremely hardwearing and chip-resistant, there's an Illamasqua Nail Varnish for every shade of humanity. Apply two coats for intensity and use with Illamasqua Nail Base Coat and Illamasqua Nail Top Coat for the perfect finish.

For application, try the 3 line technique: First wipe off the brush at the bottleneck of the nail varnish bottle; the brush must be covered evenly with product and must not drip. The first line of nail varnish is applied in the middle of the nail, from the cuticle to the nail top, in a long, soft line. The second line goes on one side of the nail and the third line on the other side. This guarantees even distribution of the shade. Additional layers may be applied to suit coverage desired.

My favourite dark polish

This is definitely red and not brown. You need two coats but it is a dark red. I adore this colour and it is my standard 'go to' polish.

BROWN NOT RED

description says 'deep ruby red metallic finish'. It is just about metallic but not ruby red at all. it's like metally brown. wish there was a store near me so I could have gone to try this out before buying it instead of ordering online. plz change your description illamasqua

not the colour it's supposed to be

Whilst this nail varnish is long-lasting and easy to apply, it is not red but a shimmery dark brown. I tried just one coat or up to three coats, and still it's a horrible rusty brown colour with a bit of a shine. If you want 'ruby red', this is not the nail varnish for you, very very disappointing

Scarab

This nail varnish is amazing. The colour is like a metallic rouge-noir, a little warmer though. It stays on for a fairly long time, to say that it's highly pigmented. I love it and will buy more when I run out!

Scarab. Nail polish

This is the most intense and beautifully rich polish I have ever tried. I will be ordering the base and top coats as soon as possible!

Good quality, gorgeous colour

This is my favourite dark colour I own, the colour looks better in person, less sparkly. All illamasqua nail polish is brilliant quality (I'd even say better than other brands such as O.P.I and Nars), lasts for way longer with less chipping that cheap nail varnish. Worth buying the base and top coats too, they last even longer and I often get asked where I got my nails done because they look so professional. Thanks illamasqua!
